can i plug any speaker into the subwoofer port? ...
can i plug any speaker into the subwoofer port? because I have one medium speaker and one small one.
As long as the speaker has a 1/8" / 3.5 mm compatibility it would work due to the device supporting full 7.1 audio output.

question
Does this work with self-powered microphones? or only with cheaper plug-in power ones (like headset mics). I want to use it with a semi-pro Sony ECM-MS957 which has a stereo 1/8 plug (I can buy an adapter to split to two mono 1/8 plugs). Some interfaces have a capacitor or something inside that charges up and mutes the mic after a minute or so if it's not the plug-in-power type.
The StarTech USB Audio Adapter would be compatible with the Sony ECM-MS957 - Stereo Condenser Microphone.
